Molly must drive across a bridge over a river eight times each week. Because the bridge is narrow and traffic is congested, Moll

y's willingness to pay for the eighth and final weekly trip is $0.50. Now the governor has promised to refurbish this old bridge and widen it to lessen the congestion and increase traffic flow over the river. Molly will have to pay extra taxes to finance the repair, but the toll for crossing the bridge will fall, and she expects to make 10 trips instead of just 8. How would you figure out how much Molly is willing to pay in taxes for the bridge repair?

Based on Molly's willingness to pay for the 8th trip, and the number of trips she can make over the bridge, her willingness to pay for the bridge repair would be<u> $1.00.</u>

<h3>What is Molly's willingness to pay for taxes to fix the bridge?</h3><h3 />

Molly's willingness to pay for trips is equal to the total consumer surplus she gets.

This means that her consumer surplus is $0.50.

With the bridge fixed, she can make 2 more trips than before because she can make 10 trips.

Her willingnesss to pay for the taxes will therefore be equal to her willingness to pay for the remaining trips:

= 0.50 x 2

= $1.00

What is the product of (3x+7) and (x-7) ?
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer: The product of (3x+7) and (x-7) equals 3x^2 + 28x + 49

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the product of (3x+7) and (x-7) means to multiply both variables: To multiply both variables, we first multiply 3x by the expression, x - 7, then multiply 7 by the expression, x - 7.

(3x × x) +( 3x × 7) + (7 × x) + ( 7 × 7)

= 3x^2 + 21x + 7x + 49

= 3x^2 + 28x + 49

Write the equation of the circle graphed below
Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Comment

The basic equation of a circle is

(x - a)^2 + (y - b)^2 = r^2

a and b are the coordinates of the center of the circle

r is the radius.

Development of the equation

r = 1 - 1/2 = 1/2. r is the distance between the red dot and the blue dot.

So far what you have is (x - a)^2 + (y - b)^2 = (1/2)^2

The center is the red dot.

x = 1

y = - 1

Answer: (x - 1)^2 + (y + 1/2)^2 = 1/4

How is multiplying exponents (x^2*x^4) different from raising a power to a power((x^2)^4)? Ty =)
Contact [7]

Answer:

When your multiplying exponents in the same parenthasis like x^2*x^4, you'll add the exponents so it will be x^6. If it is outside the parenthasis like (x^2)^4 you'll multiply the exponents so it will be x^8. good luck! :)
